Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On Checkerboard

I got a coffee/walnut suede classic slip on vans shoe. They look very good and they are very comfortable although I do have a few problems with them... Because they are suede and they do not have any holes in them, your feet will get sweaty. Another thing, is that the stitching and elastic for my shoes were white which did not match the overall look of the shoe. I had to colore them black which made it look much better.

Not bad - I bought the white/charcoal checkered ones because I like the way they look. The sizing was a little weird, though, at least for me. I usually wear a 13 or 14, depending on the brand. These, though, I tried on a 13 in a store, and they were too loose. I then came to Zappos to get the color I wanted, and ordered them in a 12. When they arrived I found that they were perfect around the ankle, where the 13s were too loose, but they were short and squeezed my toes. Thankfully after wearing them for a while the sole gets depressed and makes for a little more toe room. Basically, these shoes run looser around the ankles than I'd have expected. I'd say try some on in a store somewhere before ordering. Though really, with Zappos' awesome return policy and fast shipping, it wouldn't be a big deal to just order some and then return them if they don't fit.

Good - Overall, I'm very happy with this product.

Favorite - The classic slip on is my daughter's favorite shoe to wear. I will say that she wore it out faster than any of her other shoes (3 months) and so I would wish for a bit more durability.

Vans - These shoes were for my son. He is familiar with Vans and wanted another pair. He likes the slip on and the comfort. He had one minor complaint that the heel took a long time to break in, it gave him blisters. Of course, if he wore a little higher sock that may not happen!

Van's ran large - I will return it because it ran large. I will need a half size smaller.

Liked the shoe a lot. Great fit, I didn't feel like it was too large or small, and does not slip off of my foot. Designed to last a long time - worth the money.

Stylish and easy - I got the camo slip ons. I love the ease of the slip on and camo goes with everything. The trade off for the ease and coolness is of course no arch support, but that's what they make inserts for.

I ordered the blue/leather ones and upon reciept they look totally black. A closer look revealed that they are NAVY and really dark. Great fit, and a good walking shoe.

I love these shoes! They look great with just about anything, are very comfortable, and well-made. The arch support isn't so great, and the back rubbed my ankle raw the first few times I wore them.

Order a half size smaller - LOVE this shoe! As cute as they are in the photo. But, they fit a bit big so I would suggest that you order a half size smaller or even a whole size smaller.

Versatility in a simple design - The Vans Slip-On is a welcomed addition to any skate or surf lifestyle. Sans laces it is definitely for the laid back lifestyle and kickback type of day. The patterned shoe I bought was the same design, but the fabric used varied. Should be in the description that the shoe may not look the same as that in the display due to variation in amount of fabric. Even so I like the shoe and will use it in between workouts and when hanging out with friends.

Review of Vans Camo with skulls - These shoes don't disappoint looks wise. They seem to run right on track as far as size. They do feel a little snug width wise, but it's not enough to be a problem. I like them a lot and would order them again.

Comfy shoe with a look that's both classic and fresh - These Vans were just what I was looking for: casual, comfy slip-ons that are both classic yet a little different. I had been shopping around but having a hard time finding the perfect Vans in women's sizes, but Zappos came through for me with tons to choose from! The only thing about this shoe is that it has nothing in the arch support department. It hasn't been a problem yet and I've walked miles in these shoes and they were still pretty comfy.

Vans - I love Vans once I break them in, but for some reason, whenever I buy the slip-ons I get blisters. However, after a couple of days, these go away and the Vans are great.

Van's Classic Slip-On - Van's slip-on takes me back to the 80's... These shoes never had any arch support, and still don't...but they do look good. Great for lounging around, but not a great shoe for long walks. They were a bit snug feeling at first, but are breaking in nicely. As usual, Zappos service was the model of perfection. Even if you don't buy this style, shop with this company!

Van's slip on - Good shoe overall. Nice color and crafmanship. Runs slightly small in width. Cool colors.

Like wearing socks - I am a pretty solid women's 12, and the men's 10.5/W12 felt a little long. I'm keeping them anyway, because I want to start wearing them right away!

Looks great, but may need an arch insert - These shoes look way coolio, but look out for rough spots inside the shoe the first few times you wear them. There are a lot of stitched seams inside the shoe that could have been finished better; I'm a little disappointed about the somewhat shabby construction there.

Comfortable and cool, though may take some breaking in - I ordered these in two styles: brown with pink dotting and black skull/helix print, thinking I'd return the pair I liked least. But I've decided to keep them both--I love the way they look! They fit well, though the inner rim rubs a bit. I've needed Band-aids the first couple of times I've worn them, but I think they'll break in. Overall, I'm very pleased.

Cute but not the most comfortable - These shoes (I got the classic checked pattern) are really cute, but they run a little long and rub at the ankle. I have a very wide foot and they are slightly wide for me, so anyone with a narrow foot might have trouble with these. They are super fun, though, and I'll keep wearing them. Just probably not at times when I have to walk around a ton or be on my feet a long time.

Very Fun Shoe - The green checked pattern is very bright and fun on this shoe. The insole could be more padded, but it is adequate. The arch support is nothing to write home about. Ordering from Zappos takes the danger out of ordering shoes online with free 2-way shipping! Thanks Zappos for your continuing unbeatable customer care.

Vans slip-on - Arch not too good. Comfortable without socks for the first day, then rubbing problem later. Got lots of compliments on style and color. Would recommend to others.

Van's Women's Classic Slip-On Navy/True White/Red - Dear Zappos, I never owned a Van Shoes before in entire life. I see people and children to teens wearing it. "Huh!, Why I don't own it too?" It hit me so hard on my mind one day as I was walking at a Plaza and Malls. I'd tried on my very first Van's Women's Classic Slip-On in Navy/True White/Red, and I tell you not only is it a fabulous looking shoe and design, it's very comfortable to wear around public Movie Theatres-Plazas to Malls. The Van's sole platform balances my happy feet. I look forward to purchasing his latest Women's Chukka Shoes in a near future by phone or Online. Keep up the Good Work Vans! Thank You, Takako M.

They will stretch! Attention Converse wearers: Get a 1/2 size up from your usual Converse size. These here Vans are much narrower! I got the Hawaiian print ones, they are sweet! Bright though, looking forward to the fade.
